Jazz needs its heroes, its questing pioneers, prepared to prevent the genre ossifying into just another orthodoxy of rigid classifications. It needs its succession of visionaries like Ornette Coleman and groups like Last Exit, to fuss up the conservatives’ suffocating status quos. By necessity the music generated by these saviours won’t satisfy the purists, defying, as it must, the tenets of their safeguarded traditions. These vanguards will operate as the art form’s Trojan horses,...

Flat Nandez – Volt Compound (album) Visionary and unclassifiable, Volt Compound is the musical history of Flat Nandez . Influenced by almost everything: house, swing, blues, techno, funk, but also television and poetry – Flat Nandez simply pursues an ideal aesthetic made of surprising contrasts. Raw and refined, his work integrates every kind of sound source with an impressionistic attitude. The interaction between man and machine encounters instrumentalism in an interdisciplinary and...

The music of Jarz (aka Gino Maduro) tells stories. He has a natural talent for sound design, and brilliantly combines atmospheres with glitch, experimental sounds and jazz elements. He is a out of the box thinking artist with a strong emotional approach. The result is a subtle, very personal sound, with an incredible care for detail. Revy and Fabio Papa did their best, and bring us radiant interpretations, completing the release with two outstanding remixes. http://www.wondermachine.net

This release is something with a special meaning to me. This EP is dedicated to my son Serafin, and it contains the tracks that gave me the idea to start Wondermachine. The music in this EP is personal and goes thru the paths I followed in music. It is the connecting bridge between electronic and instrumental approaches, strongly influenced by jazz and improvised forms of music. The track Serafin features Sandro Mariotti on soprano saxophone. I play all other instrumental parts on this EP....

[WONDERCAST006] Wanderlust by John Foley This Wondercast celebrates the death of the geocentric model, our departure from anthropocentrism. It celebrates all forms of life, humility, and respect. It rejects of nationalism and borders, and discourages misunderstanding of others. It celebrates our ability to travel around, and meet different folks. Last but not least, it is celebration of the freedom we have to listen to music from nearly every corner of the inhabitable Earth, and to feel it it...

Based in Girona, Spain, and with a musical background orbiting around jazz, funk, groove and ska, Ramacod (Ramon Macià) has created a mental musical salad that he tries to explore and exploit in every release. His productions are heavily based on a cut-n-paste, microsampling technique, always pursuing that magical moment when apparently diverse an unconnected sound samples earn a new life when put together, and the music that emerges becomes more than the sum of its parts.

It was a calm and hot summer evening. Fabio asked me to come to his studio and record a live session. I was already a couple of hours too late, I prepared up my material, including a couple of forgotten machines that were lying down in a corner since ages, l and put everything in a big backpack, mounted on my motorbike and crossed the city from an extremity to the other. After setting up my gear, I started playing without a clear goal, just jamming and improvising atmospheres. This Wondercast...

The product of an early Saturday morning jam that leaves you with an urge to get going, but no idea where to start - it is a certain form of madness, but with no outlet for it.

Revy goes Off The Grid with a departure from his usual mixing approach, veering his glitch laden aesthetics into something more akin to an experimental mixtape rather than densely layered techno tracks. Beat matching goes to the wayside in this journey into the more esoteric zones of his hard drives, rich with clicks, bleeps, and haunting emotional melodies. And while the mix would certainly not exist without technology where it is today, it should also serve as a motivation to allow yourself...

There are sometimes exceptions, Adriano Mirabile makes here one, and explores new territories, headfirst, proving that he can feel at home also breaking the schemes. This was the homework. The limitations make the music, and in this case, avoiding the standards was the exercise. Preparing the material for Wondermachine has been a long process; the scope of the project has also evolved during its realisation. The result is a blend of acoustic, electronics, jazz, ambient and dancefloor funk....

Aeolian Processes is made of multiple sound sources, routed and re-routed in the microcosm of connections that make the sound signature of Storlon so unique. Organic and breathing sound textures, shifted grooves, and a refined sense for silence are some of its particularities. Sometimes machines are more than just machines.

My approach to this Wondercast was like a ride. Baguenader means strolling, but also having the hands in the pockets, it is also the name of a tree traveller. This is my personal definition of Ambient. Electronic music has many facets, beneath the dancefloor, you can evade to uncountable different sounds. My personal vision of music is like walking, my hands in the pockets, and my head in a dream. Before stepping into electronic music, I have learned traditional instruments, and have a soft...
